On our 1st cruise we stayed in 8530 and our married children were in 8528 and 8526. All 3 rooms were terrific. While we did hear some noise from the deck chairs on deck 9 being moved once in a while it certainly was no problem and did not disturb us in the least. There was no noise from the elevators and the location of these rooms was very convenient to most of the action on deck 9. We liked these rooms so well that on our 2nd cruise we tried for the same 3 but had to take the 3 just across the ship 8030 , 8028 & 8026. Again the rooms and location were terrific. You have a great room which should make your cruise even more wonderful than you thiught it would be.
